THESE TERMS DESCRIBE THE SITE AS BUILT · REVIEWED AT EACH REDESIGN
Use of the site
The site's writing, figures, and code samples are provided for reading and learning. Don't abuse the interactive endpoints (rate limits will do the arguing), don't attempt to disrupt the service, and don't misrepresent the site's content as your own.
Content
Essays and papers are the author's work. Scientific claims trace to the linked scholarly records (OSF, ORCID); the site is a working manuscript, not a journal of record. Third-party material keeps its own licenses — including the MPL interpreter (its repository documents terms) and the typefaces (SIL Open Font License).

The footnote engine is an AI character. Its replies are generated text: occasionally wrong, deliberately dry, and never professional advice.

Warranty and liability
The site is provided as-is. The hidden terminal was tested more thoroughly than most banking software, but no promises. Said plainly, because this part has to be: THE SITE AND EVERYTHING ON IT — INCLUDING THE FOOTNOTE ENGINE — ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.
To the fullest extent the law allows, the operator of this site is not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the site or of its AI chat. The footnote engine is a character with a text generator behind it; act on its output at your own risk, and never as professional advice.
